Sommario/riassunto

Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) are among the most specialised molecules for the recognition and capture of specific analytes. Hundreds of thousands of mAbs have been generated for a large number of different antigens with increasing affinity and specificity and are available for the most diverse purposes. Many of them have been validated as irreplaceable agents for diagnosis and therapy or as unique reagents for research. Others have been developed using emerging technologies that avoid the need for animal immunisation. This short book strives to gather the perspective view of the various contributing authors and to survey the new strategic assets adopted to generate novel monoclonal antibodies or surrogates, such as Fab, Fab2, ScFv and nanobodies, which have an increasing impact in biomedicine as therapeutic or diagnostic assets in various diseases.

Sommario/riassunto

This book covers the latest developments in imaging of atherosclerosis. Topics covered include multi-detector-row technology and the use of dual energy and multi-spectral imaging. Magnetic Resonance (MR) imaging of carotid arteries, intra-cranial vessels, and coronary arteries



are also discussed in detail. Special attention is given to Computer Tomography (CT) imaging of intra-cranial vessels, coronary arteries, and atherosclerosis in the lower limb. This is an ideal book for graduate students and researchers in the field of medical imaging, especially of atherosclerosis. This book also: ·Covers state-of-the-art imaging of atherosclerosis ·Enables the reader to understand the advantages of each modality in visualizing atherosclerosis ·Describes the advances of various technologies, including dual energy and multi-spectral imaging.
